Completed in 1900, 2 West 120 St rises 7 stories over New York. Public records put it at 107 units and 77,093 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-2. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $6.8M, and assessed for tax at $3.1M. In the 90 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,885 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,807 of its 2,885 records, fully 63%, fall under that one heading. Violation (783) and enforcement (85) trail well behind. 279 violations stand open against it today.

The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 2026.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 17, with a site energy-use intensity of 205.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,105 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 63% complaint, 90 years of accumulation, a parcel of New York — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$6.8M of New York, written across 2,885 government filings.
